Baseball Display Cases...

[brandoningram]

Im sure you guys are likely getting sick of this question, and have probably answered it 100 times over in this forum...Im just too lazy to search and look through all of the older posts...Which is better to display my baseballs in, square cubes, or the round ball size cases? I collect older baseballs mainly. but some new balls as well.

Wow...after pulling my butt out of bed this morning and seeing that there were no replies to my question, I realized that in fact you guys were likely sick of this topic...So I pulled up my socks and pulled my head out of my ass and looked for myself...and I feel a sense of accomplishment for the day...Remember im lazy. I found my answer in a few previous posts and appologize for posting for the 100th time in this forum a topic that everyone has seen before. Sorry for being so lazy.

Brandon, I'll chime in since I went to bed early. My opinion is it doesn't matter as long as your display preference has U/V, you keep them out of direct sunlight, and try to rotate items you have on display so that they are not always out in any kind of light. I just bought two cases that hold 40 balls each and have U/V glass on the doors. I've also seen some like that but they hold a number of balls in ball cubes. Quality wise, I'm told that Steiner has a nice product that holds 1, 2,3 + balls, and I plan on getting a couple of these also to display some individual groupings of balls.
Good luck.

I worry about the typical acrylic baseball holders--you are still exposed to risks from UV light (including from your light bulbs), humidity, etc. Gaylord has boxes that are good for long-term storage (see link below) and you can display the balls in acrylic as needed.

Leather is not naturally white, so all baseballs are in the process of returning to their original color. The best you can do is to slow the process.
